It is always a pleasure to receive comments from you.<br /><br />My collector's story would be incomplete without the presence of my white inanimate childhood friends. I had to include the Barbie, friends, and family along with one of my first dolls, a white squeeze-toy doll from 1958 to complete the story.<br /><br />The two 36-inch dolls are, in fact, Patti Playpal, Ideal's first black version from 1981 and Ashton Drake/Collectibles Today's 2006 reproduction (red dress) which uses the original 1960s Patti Playpal sculpt.<br /><br />dbg Black Doll Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534871309015210903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-77566592736009944282016-04-24T00:14:37.363-05:002016-04-24T00:14:37.363-05:00Amazing to see your a little part of your collecti...Amazing to see your a little part of your collection in "real time". I love that you also loaned your original Barbie's to give the rest of your dolls a context. I LOVE the larger girl dolls to the right they're lovely (sought of the Patty Playpal style) who are they? So good to see & read the recognition your collection is getting recently Debbie! :DJulius Maloneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08006134062866647709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-38479315594058781922016-04-20T12:39:09.222-05:002016-04-20T12:39:09.222-05:00You're welcome, Thammie and thank you!
